Deleting Solid Bodies and Examining Surface Geometry

Before you mesh the model with shells, delete the solid bodies and examine the continuity of the new surface geometry.

1. In the FeatureManager design tree, under Solid Bodies , select the scoop and handle.
2. Right-click and select Delete/Keep Bodies .
3. Click .
   Notice the gap (equal to half the scoop thickness) that forms between the scoop and handle. To ensure mesh continuity between the parts you should remove the gap. In the next topics, you apply surfacing techniques to join the two bodies and create common edges at the touching faces.
